About Axel Mansoor

Singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Axel Mansoor has lived in 5 different countries across 4 continents but currently calls Los Angeles home. He believes that flaws are one of the most important aspects of a person. The contrast they create makes us who we are; from our flaws, our strengths arise. It comes as no surprise that his music is more than just catchy indie pop. Mansoor sings, writes, produces and plays guitar on nearly all of his songs. The music features themes of transformation and self-love, and an underlying message is the realization that one need not rely on others to feel validated.

Authentic, bold, and honest, Wasted My Love marked a vibrant 2017 debut for Axel. The single reached #5 on Spotify’s US Viral 50 chart, received numerous radio spins from Jason Kramer of KCRW and garnered praise from several influential music blogs. Follow-up Out of My Head also garnered recognition across the online music community topping Hype Machine’s Popular chart and earning spots on Spotify’s coveted New Music Friday playlists. 2017 also saw Mansoor release Wasted My Love (Remixed), Hit Rewind, a collaboration with producer Louis Vivet, and December single Talk To Me which was accompanied by a vertical music video premiered on BuzzFeed’s Snapchat Discover channel. With a debut EP slated for release in the spring of 2018, the LA-based artist is showing listeners that it’s okay to make genuine and emotion-driven music without having to slap a label on it.
